Ever have a day so inconceivably bad that you understand the irrational mindset of criminals, alcoholics or animals that eat their young? These days are torturous and I refuse to believe I am the only one who has them! When I am in this unreasonable mood I am surprised people don’t turn to stone by the bitter scold on my face. Only a few things can snap me out of this state:
~ A really strong drink
~ A good nap during a rain storm
~ A fluffy puppy
~ A promising opportunity in my near future
Luckily, the fourth thing fell upon me recently as the others are only temporary remedies. The alcohol will wear off over time and not only will I return to reality, I will have a headache in doing so. I would eventually wake up from my nap rejuvenated enough only to last through the day but not prepared to handle the next. A fluffy puppy, though adorable and consoling, will happily exchange my affection to chase a squirrel.
I suppose I’ve been receiving a lot of promising opportunities lately, in which case I don’t have a probable excuse for my unreasonable attitude and Medusa face—I’m just so impatient and I find it very difficult to wait for my successful endeavor! It’s like I can feel my next adventure before me… I can feel the door linking me and my future in a dark, dark room but I can’t find the door knob. I feel the creases in the door and the hinges and the texture of the wood. It’s like I have formed this resentful and intimate relationship with this door by knowing every tiny detail about it, except what his on the other side… and I am growing unpleasantly impatient every day I feel for that door knob that I cannot seem to find.
I need to remain calm and continue to search because I know it’s there. It’s just that any time I am close to something, it is so easy to lose all faith and sensibility, but nobody can really blame me; it’s my nature as a human being to react this way. That being said, if anybody out there has advice on remaining calm and patient… or has a flash light to find that damn door knob… please send it my way. |

| I have often had a similar conversation with myself. Being in my mid 20s should I still be working a go-nowhere job? On the other hand, I also know that I will not always be working there and that someday I will be off to bigger and better things. It is important to know that life does not run on a straight line, but often zigzags from one event to another. No two lives are the same, there is no designated course you must follow. Right now is the best time to learn patience with a slow and often mind numbing job. Take the opportunities that come into your life and I feel that you will do great things.
But for now this video always makes me feel better when I am down.

| I love you Allie! I have bad days all the freaking time! You know what I do? I "have a little bit of popcorn" and I call Sully over in his tool bet and have him do random chores around the house. I like when he bends over because then I can see how good his butt looks on his jeans! :) |

| bad days come and go, and they help you to truly realize when you are having a good one. how else do you form a comparison? i think for a bad day, the only way to really get rid of it is to live it. don't ignore it. be upset, and understand why you are upset and learn how to avoid it. it is all a learning experience.
you will be something. (you already are.) you're just one of those people that is like a magnet for everything...people gravitate to you. unfortunately that means dealing with people at their shit! but you'll live through it, and you'll come out better for it.
even though i NEVER see you anymore...i love ya! i know someday you'll be famous and i'll get to say "yeah, i know that girl. we were pirates in a different life..." |

| Hi Allie Everyone has bad times bad days I'm glad you used option number 4. Theh first one never works the 2nd one works if its raining and the 3rd if you have a puppy I guess you could borrow one if you had to.
Here is what I hope will you,ask the spirt with in you to help you, do not worry.Worry does not empty tomorrow of sorrow it emptie today of its strength. Christr says do not worryabout tommorrow for it will worry about it self. A good friend once told me it is like a roching chair you can rocc or worry all you want it willnot get you anywhere you will remain in the same spot.
I suggest do something today you never done before, or go out to the mall and compliment 5 people on how nice they look. do something for a stranger just to make them fill good. I guarantee you your day will get better, their smiles and thanks will penitrate you and eliminate the the bad day.
Remeber you are who you hang with also.
Your the best keep smiling it look good on you. |

| first things first. everyone has bad days... i don't care who you are, your going to have a bad day. puppies always help. even though they might be the thing you are stressed about (aka... my puppy) they always look cute in there fuzzy pants. naps are good, but they also waist the day away. a strong drink is a bad idea. get a glass of your favorite wine (or 2 hehe) just enough to make you silly, pop in a dvd of your favorite FRIENDS episode and laugh by yourself. and last... a promising opportunity in your near future is no such thing. nothing is promising. all you can do is get the best you can get, do your very best, and hope that its taking you in the right direction. believe in yourself! worst case you have another bad day, and you move on. remember that people love you, and that we are always around to hear your bad day, or bad week. then decide whether to keep having a bad day or to put in behind you and move on. Love you sis! |
